Curious and irritating problem. Installation of the Mac version went fine. Upon booting application, the app. window does not show everything. Partial drawing of application interface appears. Sometimes more will show up. I have seen the entire window a couple of times, but generally only a small portion appears, or an entirely grayed out window shows. hard to do anything with that! If I happen to have a complete window, I enter a song title, then select "audio" from the drop down menu, and then click search. Once it worked, the very first time I used it, but after that it never worked again. I uninstalled, rebuilt desktop, reinstalled, increased allocated memory, but the problem seems to be a progressive one. I get decreasing display each time I quit and reboot the app or the computer. In short, this is completely useless on my computer (PowerBook G3 running OS 9.1.1). I downloaded the OSX version, and it would not install, giving a failure note that says it will not run on my computer.

I loved the promise of Limewire, but the software doesn't seem to work for me no matter what I do. If I click the window shade up and down to try to refresh the app display, it takes forever to cycle through the windowshade. It has to redraw the finder beneath first, then the icons on it, and then the app window will drop down. Very slow, like 1/10th speed redraws while Limewire is on...

Try turning virtual memory on. If you computer has a low amount of memory in total it may be difficult to run LimeWire. Adding physical RAM will help. When LimeWire fails to display something it ran out of memory so quitting other applications will fix the problem and allow display.

I have the same problem with the corrupt interface with LWPro. Turning on, and even increasing virtual memory doesn't help at all. Do these guys have any real support, or are we just sent to forum pergatory???

I agree. I've just paid for and downloaded LWPro and all it's done is crash my Mac (MacOS9.2.2/G3/640Mb RAM and Broadband connection). The free version worked better, but would do the same mad things occasionally.

Come on guys, give us some help. We all want to be a part of this.

Hi,
I posted the last message in this thread. Since then I have been in touch with Adam Fisk and sent him an error text from my LW. In the meantime, he told me to try allocating more memory to the application. I had already done this, but not by nearly enough. If you set the memory to 60Mb minimum and 70Mb max, it should make LW work perfectly. At least, mine is so far. Give it a go!
